Actually, ventriloquists don't insert the whole hand, just a finger so ther can loop it round the string which operates the mouth. It's known in the trade as the ring finger.
I already subscribe to the mag & it's brilliant. I would say it transports you straight back to the good old days but I don't want to give the impression I'm an old fart. Anyway, if you haven't subscribed yet then do it, it's worth it, just tell them Lt sent you.
I really think this thread has run it's course now & should be locked. I was as piddled off as anyone by Han's actions last week, but enough is enough. I really can't condone any suggestions of violence whatsoever. By all means boo him as loudly as you can when he rides at your track, but any suggestions of slapping his face etc are totally unacceptable. Please mods can you lock this thread & let the whole sorry episode die a death.
One of the worst crashes I've witnessed was in the last ever meeting at Leicester when Mike Lanham was so badly injured. If I recall he suffered something like 14 bone fractures & lost the use of one arm. I was also unfortunate enough to be riding in a meeting where a rider was killed right in front of me. I was one of the first to see the result of his injuries close up & it's something you never forget. Speedways a fantastic sport, but sometimes it can also kick you in the guts without warning.
Good to see you've still got your sense of humour mate. Sorry if my comment was a bit out of order. I agree that Anderson's tactics in the last race didn't affect the overall score, but I still think the smirking little toad deserves a good kicking (verbaly, not in reality). Looking forward to meeting up with you for a pint sometime.
(Your round).
Middlo, don't feel too bad mate. At least you got the chance to see at first hand that mole on Sophie Blake's right twit. See, every cloud has a silver lining.
and restock the shelves with good old British Sour Grapes
Steve, I used to enjoy a bit of banter with you in the past, but just lately you seem to have lost your sense of humour. Isn't it strange how people change.
